Ryan : Here we are. Listen up pilots. We are now deploying shuttle CLINTON. Protect the shuttle at all costs. (37.1) -- After 15 seconds Kappa, Iota and Theta wings depart from the station and hurry to -- intercept. Enemy starfuries are STB, add squadrons, delete some.... just do it there -- is a constant pressure from Cooke station. Mason : The station has launched its starfighters. Auroras, Thunderbolts and Badgers. They really have some firepower stationed here. (37.2) Trainor : We are taking position between the gate and the station for additional protection. (37.3) Boomer : This mission should be a piece of cake. (37.4) Balrok : You mean except the fact we are fighting against the odds ? (37.5) Spawn : Yeah. They'll have the gate disabled in no time and then we are out of here. (37.6) -- When Clinton has docked to the jumpgate pylon CLINTON : Uhm.... hello ? David Frasier speaking. We have left the shuttle and are entering the installation. The computer control room is 300 meters down that corridor, this will take a while. I'll report back when we are at the first seal. (37.7) Viper : *laughs* Hehehe. This guy is definately no marine. We have incoming, the show begins. (37.8) -- After fighting broke out : Valhahn : We have got hostiles all over the place, Watch out for enemy furies trying to outflank us ! (37.9) Spawn : Confirmed. Damn, there are many ! (37.10) -- After a short while (STB) CLINTON : Frasier here, we broke through the first seal, I think we'll have the job done in a couple of minutes . (37.11) Trainor : That's good news. Alpha squadron, you heard it, don't get too far away from the Alexander, as soon as the gate is disabled we are your only ticket out. (37.12) Spawn : No shit, sherlock. (37.13) -- After a while (STB) Piranha jumps in with Tau wing at jumpgate. Trainor : Attention Alpha ! A hostile group of thunderbolts has just jumped in ! They came through the gate ! Designation : TAU wing ! (37.14) COOKE : This is COOKE station to EarthForce patrol wing TAU ! Destroy the enemy shuttle docking to the jumpgate as fast as you can ! (37.15) -- Note : Piranha and wing will shoot shuttle clinton to bits. This cannot be prevented, so -- we might do it even scripted. Piranha : Confirmed, Cooke station. (37.16) Shadow : What the.... God damn you, Piranha ! (37.17) -- When shuttle CLinton destroyed : Piranha : Strike ! That's one more for me ! (37.18) Frasier : Hey ! Our shuttle just went to hell ! Now we are trapped here on the jumpgate installation ! (37.19) Trainor : Hang on, we will evacuate you with another shuttle, what's the situation with the jumpgate ? (37.20) Frasier : Well, he have the gate disabled in 20 seconds, then we are clear for extraction ! (37.21) Shadow : Not with Piranha still around. Danny, take the bitch down for good ! (37.22) Piranha : Come on Shadow, you're a wimp. I thought you'd try it on your own. Alright, Mr.Hale, catch me if you can ! (37.23) -- as soon as Piranha is targeted... HALE : I have locked on. (37.24) Piranha : You too will have to answer to someone, Commander !!! (37.25) -- Piranha no longer (INV) -- When Piranha gets damaged first time : Piranha : Argh ! Shit ! (37.26) -- When she is destroyed an escape pod spawns where she is, (INV) : Trainor : Well done, Danny ! She bailed out, I have a reading on her lifepod. I am afraid we can't pick her up, we have to evacuate our technicans from the jumpgate pylon and then we have to jump out before EarthGov brings in capital ships. We are launching shuttle Roosevelt now. (37.27) -- shuttle Roosevelt starts and heads for jumpgate. All enemy starfuries break off and -- head back to the station. Fighting shall end now. Shadow : They are breaking off their attack ! Alpha squad, don't pursue them, let them go. (37.28) Trainor : Mr.Frasier, shuttle Roosevelt is about to dock, prepare for extraction. (37.29) Piranha : You'll never get away with this ! (37.30) Shadow : Tricia, your escape pod has no engines and most of all, it has no guns. I suggest you keep your mouth shut. (37.31) Spawn : Besides, I think we WILL get away with this, lady ! (37.32) Piranha : Derek, you wouldn't dare shooting me in an escape pod ! (37.33) -- Shuttle will dock to jumpgate and head back after 30 secs. Shadow : Look at you, Tricia, you are nothing but a helpless piece of flesh, drifting through space in a thin metal alloy capsule. You always wanted to go carreer, but you never cared of anyone but yourself. No one would miss you if I pulled the trigger now. (37.34) Piranha : Ah, the great moralist is speaking again ! Now I tell you something ! YOU don't know what it means to have comrades to be responsible for ! After the Bremer incident you fell into my back and you wouldn't have minded if those EA-lawyers had eaten me for lunch ! (37.35) Shadow : I can't believe how badly ambition ate you up. You are just blind, Tricia. Ask my comrades if I really don't care for others. (37.36) -- nothing for 10 secs. Balrok : Ah, she cut the channel, do we really have no time to pick her up ? (37.37) Ryan : No, Lieutenant, we don't have a salvage team ready by now. We'll leave her here for Cooke S'n'R. (37.38) -- When SHU Roosevelt is back on Alexander Trainor : We are leaving. All fighters, get close to Alexander and prepare to jump out. (37.39) Debriefing : ( hold by Ryan ) --------------------------------------- Well done, Mr.Hale. I have to say, it is good to have you onboard again. And you did well during the last mission. The assault on Orion 7 has already begun, and the troops at Cooke have no hope getting to Orion before the fight is over. The Alexander is still behind enemy lines. We did our part, now we will seek hideout till our fleet catches up. (db37.1)
